Thursday 1 February 2007

Compact design ideal for retrofit or existing fryer installations

FMC FoodTech, one of the world’s largest suppliers of industrial food processing systems, today introduced the MX-20 MicroMax centrifugal filter from Stein, the world leader in coating, frying and cooking equipment. The MX-20 is the latest addition to the MicroMax filter line, providing an ultra-fine, continuous hot oil filtration solution for single fryer applications.

The MX-20 MicroMax centrifugal filter was developed to handle medium to high volume single fryer applications. The compact design and small footprint are ideal for retrofit applications on existing fryer installations.

Designed to provide a steady 20 gallons (75 liters) per minute of filter capacity, the MX-20 can filter all the oil in a medium sized frying system over nine times per shift, resulting in more than one complete turnover every hour. Additionally, the MX-20 removes sediment down to one micron to ensure the highest quality and consistency of a coated products operation.
